St. Mary's, Halifaz, July 22d, 1867. § Dear Sir:

At a crisia like the present, when the eiection mewbers for the House of Commons in the new Dominion of Canada is about to take place, I feel it a duty to address you, as Seeretary of! Mr. D'Arcy McGee's Election Committee, and at a distonce of eight hundred miles, to raise my | humble voice in behalf of an [rishinan, who, under a kind Providence, has been mainly instrumental in lifting up his fellow countrymen and co-religion- ista to w position which, I believe in my heart, |

Thomas D’Arey MeGee, as an individual, may

no mere buman being, however great and good, | can be entirely exempt; but as a public man, | whose career I have narrowly watched witb the |

— oe — THE LAST INDIAN FIGHT.

The following description of the Iast Indias fight at Fort Wallace, Kaseas, noted in our telegraphic despatches a week or two sinoe, is from the correspondence ef the Pbiladelpbia Press :—

I have seen battle-fields where for giles the dead and the dying, warrior and steed, lay «mn the gory fieid. It has been my fate to be beside the weunded and the dead on the night of horror succeeding the day of strife, but never did I feel

Like the unseen watch, it his brilliant and almost fanitless public career in might not have been heeded at the moment,

To his intellectual supremacy I would add one

present day; but if that match had been once ignited, and that D’Arey McGee had not been on the watch-towers when all others were asleep, I as an Irish Catholie Archbishop, yielding to no man in my love for my fellow-countrymen and my co-religionists at home or abroad, I distinctly state that in my conviction, fur as Irishmen and

iscopacy and Priesthood, who, unlike them, have not produced a single traitor ner informer for centuries, and who are now, as they ever were, infinitely more reliable in the hour of danger, as every Irishman well knows. The money of Brit- ain did not buy them for centuries, nor are they purchaseable to the present hour. They are now ready as ever tu sacrifice even life itself if their principles were assailed, or if any really solid ad- vantages were to be acquired thereby for poor Ireland. Notwithstanding all clamer to the con- trary, the masses of the population im that country, and her whole priesthood, yield to no class of men in their undying love for tatherland, and are, in the religious as in in the patriotic view, still sound to the core. As a people, still clinging with un- wavering tenacity to their religion, country, and institutions, they present to the eye of the un- biassed observer the proudest national spectacle ou earth. Stall in extent of territory, aud still amaller in her resources and in the number of ber population, Ireland, amid the storms of ages, and after seven hundred years of subjection to an- ether land, still holds her own, and exhibits a national and distinctive vitality at the present day, not certainly surpassed by any of the larger and more favored countries of Europe.

the sickening sensation, the giddy, fainting feel ing, that came over me when I saw our dead, our dying, and our wounded after this Indian fight. A handful of men, to be sure, but wite wounds enough upon them to have slain a bat- talion, if evenly distributed. The* was stripped naked, and five arrowe driven threegh hun, while his skull was litterally smashed te atoms. Another wan was shot with four bullets and three arrows; his scalp was torn off, and bis brains knocked out. Another was riddled with balls and arrows, but they did nut succeed in getting hix scalp, though like the other two, be was stripped naked; while avother was shot through the bedy with an arrow, and his left urm was hacked to pieces parrying the Indies lances. He was a Scotchman, a brave fellow, and breathed out his life in the arme of bis com- rades. A Sergeaut lay dead beside bis horse, and as the fearful picture met my gage, I felt like fainting. Horse and rider were stri bare of trappings and clothes, while around them the wounded horses, and the trampled ground showed the desperation of the at that point.

Would, I say, that in this country of bright hopes we could get rid of this one great national drawback, and imitate at an humble distance the Envglish, the Freneb, the Scotch and the Americans, in agreeing to differ on minor points, but to be ever blended together as one man in essentials; and then we would make our mark in thie country, and in its legis- lature, and would intellectually, socially, and tically, yield to uo others in the land,

At the inauguratioa of the New Domiuion, the time has come fer shaking off in earnest this degrading “ badge of our tribe.””— Let us no longer listen to the voice of blinding passion, but act in public and private affairs as thioking and reasoning human beings, vindicating our own views as best we can, and making all charitable allowances for others. Let us have honorable ambition; yes! but let us be muderate and mvod- est in our pretensions; let us never be foremost nor in each other's way where public position and the loaves and fishes are concerned. Let us never be guilty of the unpardunable criune of splitting up for personal ends our own people, who are but one-seventh in number and not one-fifteenth, per- haps, in influence, of the whole population, and who through their own fault solely, are well nigh powerless as they can be. Let us hear no more ot Irish faction fights and degrading feuds where

the once brave, strong heart, and the arm

had sent terror into the ranks of the red fiends was bared of its muscle, es if they wished to pry into the secret of his prowess. His limbe from the thigh to the knee lay open with horrible gashes, and from the knee to the foot they bad backed the bones with their tomahawkes. Thue mutilated he lay beside the mangled horse.

Marrers 1x Sr, Jomy’s, NewrocnpLanp.— A very exciting case has been recently tried iu our Police Court. The circumstances are briefly these: One of the most exem of our Roman Catholic Clergymen, while visiting a disreputable portion of our city in the dis- charge of his duty, met two young females, one of whom he recognized as a person he had visited in the hospital, she at the time sick of fever. He addressed her in words admonition, telling her that she was perilling her salvation, &c., when the cocandl Caan

poli- [44 Protestant) interfered with him, and sought

to draw her companion away. He said to the latter, he had nothing to say to her, inasmuch as she belonged to another persuasion, and desired her to go on. She refused, aceompany- ing her refusal with sueh intolerable abuse, that the Rev. Gentleman slapped ber on the cheek. She stocped to pick up a stene, when he put his cane across her back four times. A police summons was the result, and the Rev. Gentleman was fined $6 for his over zeal in the service of the Almighty. It is felt that the verdiet is an outrageous one. A pominal fine should have been inflicted, as panishing him for violation of the law in slapping the prostitute; but not only was he fi but also admonished by the magistrate—a man 88 years of age, (clearly too old to fill so important an office,) and father of the present Premier of Newfoundland. The house of the prostitute

and fer the very obvious reason that Mr. McGee and my bumble self, and all the Bishops and Priests in lreland and America, and every in- telligent aud respectable man, clearly foresaw and announced before-hand,—and the reason is, that it wae simply impossible.

The very first elements of suecees were not taken inte account in the programme. There was not a distant approach to equality im the number aud resources of the two parties that were to do battle. There was first but sheer madness in the plan, and then there was no blend- ing of sentiment—no unity of action among the

ably entertained.

The records of his long and public services in Canada, and the prestige of his name, have not only raised him up to an eminence not accessible to others, but they have ee- cured for Irishmen and Catholics in this country a position which, without him, én my conviction, they could never have obtain- ed. About the cause that led to his with- drawal from the New Government, I know nothing ; but if Mr. McGee, or one like him, bas not made his mark, and that his influence were not felt and acknowledged from end to end of the land, the Irish Catholic element, I fear, might not have been required in the formation of the new Ministry, and seven haudred thousand helots would be practically unrepresented in the Executive at Ottawa, as millions of the same creed and caste now
